Author's Note: I had a dream where i couldn't understand a thing. I was listening to someone. This person was trying to tell something really important but i just couldn't understand a word. It was greek to me. And i was doing all these "Oh, eh, ah, uh, huh"'s trying to keep the conversation going. And the person got really-really irritated and so she started to slap my face and then i lost my consciousness and found myself in a bag which was falling into the river and then i woke up. This poem attempts to transcribe my part of that surreal conversation.

Author's note: what is X? It is one of those letters we use to cover something. Names are often concealed by X's, bad words are often replaced with X. But what if X is the last letter standing and there is nothing left? What's then? That's what i'm trying to explore.

Author's Note: My reasoning for doing it is simple. Horizontal plains are widely exploited by literary forms while vertical are woefully ignored. Since this is digital space - i think we can try something different. And not exactly meaningful.
